First Defense

| Product Features and Benefits

Protecting producer herds from contagious diseases by testing both incoming and current animals is a basic tenet of biosecurity. ImmuCell is a leader in diagnostic products for bovine diseases, such as Johne’s Disease (Mycobacterium paratuberculosis). This highly contagious, debilitating malady decreases milk production and will eventually lead to premature culling of the animal.

rjt (Rapid Johne's Test) is a confirmation test for Johne's Disease utilizing AGID (agar gel immunodiffusion) technology to aid in the differential diagnosis of cattle with clinical Johne's Disease. rjt provides the means to rapidly identify infected, symptomatic cattle in your client’s herd with 100% specificity. The test format is simple to perform, and results are complete in just 24-48 hours. rjt provides quick, on-site information that can be used throughout the testing chain, whether at the veterinarian/producer level or at central laboratories.
